Fury v AJ who wins

[erics44]

who do you reckon?

[TitoFan]

AJ by KO. Not even close.

[Memphis]

Genuine question. To those that subscribe to the thinking that AJ, Wilder, anyone else for that matter would be lead a merry dance by Fury and that they'd be lucky to nearly land a glove on him. Do they base that entirely on the Klitshcko fight, or do they take into account his previous fights?

[erics44]

I base it on the wlad fight

it didn't look like fury had any chance of beating anyone right at the top before that

against wlad he dominated, won most of the rounds, the scores were too close in the end

so base it on the best fury don't you think?

All Fury's fights, he has the height and reach advantage, he learnt not to show his chin after Cunningham and beat/bamboozled Wlad.

Wlad was scared to commit and get hit . Joshua will plough forward and win by KO.

I don't think Joshua has the stamina to plough forward that much. He's bit and muscular meaning he tires after throwing a combination or two. Plus everyone and his Mum has managed to kd Wlad over the years. Not everyone crumbles like that.

Personally I think Fury wins a dull fight by decision. He's a far bigger fighter able to vary his game enough to befuddle AJ.

I base it on that one and his previous career, I think fury started improving a lot in the year or two before fighting wladimir, he started to use his height and reach very well and he is great at fighting rough/borderline cheating(his ko of cunningham is a good example of this).. He seems to have become very fit in big fights now too(maybe due to wild boar consumption), I think he would out wrestle, out jab and just exhaust joshua... If he comes back the same as before he left of course.

There's no way Furys mind games will work on AJ so it comes down to purely what happens in the ring.
Either AJ batters him silly and gets the KO or Fury goes in awkward and picks AJ off with those long arms, racks up points, spoils and get the points win.
Could easily go either way this one but fitness and conditioning could be a huge factor and if it goes into the deep end 8 plus rounds you'd back AJ.
Tough to call but if pushed I'd say AJ by KO as I simply can't see him not landing big on Fury at some stage.
